Linky Links

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Cool - Rick & Morty creator Dan Harmon is making an animated series set in ancient mythological Greece.

The [Macro] Economics of Living to 100. Not mentioned - raising the retirement age from 65. Also most pensions are municipally related (teachers, police, firemen, etc.) so people living to 100 has big-time costs and risks in that arena too. (HT Steve Layman)

- Where are the feminists?

- The 3 worst things about that terrible Jeep Super Bowl ad. Don Draper would not approve. As I've said - it will be interesting to track how Jeep sales pre and post Super Bowl ad.

Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

People with "coexist" bumper stickers are usually the worst drivers on the road. How about learning to coexist with other traffic and then you can make your political statements... Heh Heh... "The Democratic Party in power is a standing menace to the prosperity of the country." Republican motto from the 1888 election... Interesting - "at no time in the past 40 years, since Saddam Hussein aquired absolute power... has Baghdad been as free and fun as it is now"... When Albert Einstein first visited America in 1921 the US Senate saw fit to debate the validity of the Theory of Relativity. That's seriously something that happened... I honestly had never heard of the Great Colonial Hurricane (which would also be a cool name for a band)... Are National Dog Day and Womens Equality Day really held on the same day? Really?...

Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Sure call me a misogynist but I still say the push-up bra might be the best thing since sliced bread... And speaking of misogyny - free the nipple!...  For the record - I did not order the code red! You're goddamn right I didn't!... I guess you could say this was true... Who knew? Van Morrison's Brown-Eyed Girl was originally written as "Brown-Skinned Girl"...  Just saying but did anyone ever see Frank Sinatra and DB Cooper in the same room? Coincidence? You decide... How can you not love Dolly Parton?...
